About the Item

A Magnificent Monumental Art Déco Bronze "Polar Bear" after Francois Pompon. "Ours Blanc". Private commission. Hand-stamped monogram "C A " on the lower flank/ rear leg. According to our research, the bronze is an exclusive custom casting from the early 1980s or even earlier from the 1970s. The mark is old and was intentionally applied during or after the casting process. The rough, slightly irregular engraving of the letters suggests genuine handcrafted work from an Art Workshop. This high-quality bronze does not come from the modern mass production of reproductions but is, with a high degree of certainty, an official, extremely limited-edition piece from an authorized museum workshop in France. The surface boasts a deep, silky-matte dark finish. This monumental edition masterfully embodies the Avant-Garde Art Déco spirit , capturing the animal´s powerful presence through sleek, stylized contours and smooth, geometric volumes. This Impressive statement piece measures 88 cm !!! in length and weighs a substantial 24 kg. The present sculpture is understood to be a special private commission , conceived for Monumental Interior display, possibly for a private villa or prestigious hotel foyer. The sculpture will be professionally crated for safe international transportation. Further informations available upon request.
